TEAC introduced the BD-W512GSA, a cost-effective Blu-ray writer drive designed to make the standard accessible to more PC users. Sold in bulk/OEM packaging priced around €79, the drive can write Blu-ray BD-R discs at 12X speeds, BD-RWs at 8X, double-layer discs around 8X, DVDs at 16X, and CDs at 48X. While it can read triple- and quad-layer discs, it doesn't appear like the drive supports writing the two formats. It is built in the conventional 5.25-inch SATA form-factor, and comes with black and white bezel options.

Some thing i always wished i took with me when i moved to the stats my TEAC amp and TEAC DVD player which both were made solid as hell.. And the amp i had was totally sweet with faster type music which would thump on your chest like if it was trying to give you a heat attack.

Question is are they built the same today.. I know i have a external DVD player here which is not great how ever has gave me no issue with copy right DVD games as some games are worth getting that way.
